NECA: Predator Movie Franchise Figures

[a-dev]

It was always gonna be the face that let this down. I love the body sculpt, they really nailed it.

 

[greygoose]

Its that damn pout and overpainted lips. Just doesn't work.

Yeah, let's the whole figure down.

 

[The Rider]

Too bad, I hoped that the sculpt looks better in 1/4 but the face looks like a cartoon.
The big eyes and lips, I dont unterstand why Neca dont fix this.

Best portrait yet has to be Trevor Howard's rendition of Dutch for Sideshow's Premium Format.

 

[wolverenz]

Wow! There's too much negativity here. Oh well, I'll be getting it anyway and just appreciate a 1/4 scale Dutch.

 

[G-M53]

Well I hope it sells great in hopes of a 1/4 T-800 someday.

 

[Unclechopchop]

C'mon guys! This is the sideshow forums! Nobody is ever pleased!

 

[a-dev]

I wouldn't want to be on a forum where no one had a problem with anything, where objective criticism was shouted down.

I just hope and pray neca's factory don't screw the alien queen up.

I wouldn't want to be on a forum where no one had a problem with anything, where objective criticism was shouted down.

But yet, I've never heard a thread where people say "yeah, I'm alright with that".....

 

[a-dev]

Selective memory. Of course many people have said that. There is no one who hates everything, there is no one who loves everything.

 

[gdb]

People who are okay with other people loving what they themselves hate are rare among board posters.

 

[a-dev]

And the same the other way too.

 

[Burnside]

How tall is he compared to the predators?

I double that

 

[The Rider]

Well I hope it sells great in hopes of a 1/4 T-800 someday.

But then with an revisted sculpt and better paintjob on the eyes.
Neca have some great sculpts, for example Hudson and the human freddy Krüger.

But here is something off.

@marisinacc, yes this sculpt is great. But I think the best Arnold sculpt is the Enterbay BD .

 

[gdb]

And the same the other way too.

Absolutely.

 

[Jason Marko]

Im looking forward to the 1/4 Dutch. I have a spot for it on my shelf already.

 

[Reefer Shark]

New preds are out!







First impressions:

The Predators are AWESOME. I love em both, excellent detail and pretty different looking than the standard pred. The Alien head on the Spear is so cool, really happy with these ones.

Thermal Dutch is alright. He looks better in pics than in person IMO. In pics the effect looks much more "thermal", but in person it kinda looks like blotchy paint. Honestly if I didn't have every figure in this line already I might've passed on him.

Apparently he is a short packed figure in the case, but I imagine if there's a peg warmer in this wave, Thermal Dutch will be the one hanging alongside Lava Pred (which I really liked by the way)

Also picked up the 1/4 scale Dutch tonight, and am really pleased with him. Basically just a bigger heavier version of the smaller figure, which is great since that figure is excellent.

Thanks for the Pics! I have all 3 on order and I can't wait to get themXD Finally all 3 Preds from Dead End will be completed.

 

[Reefer Shark]

Right on man! Wasp is so great, thinking about trying to figure out some dark alley display for the dead end preds..
